Hello,
I'm reaching a dilemma at the moment, back in August last year i purchase 2 rabbits from our local pet store (2 females), they use to play a lot and get along as they were brought together. Since Christmas their rabbit nature was kicking in and things got a bit violent between them so they had to be separated into different cages until we could get them sprayed just before the new year. Since then, one of them has been extremely nasty to the other trying to cause fights and bite etc while the other is being friendly. The cages have always been close (like roughly A4 sheet of paper close) but no matter what i do (like let them out in another room together) the other one just eventually starts fighting with the nicer rabbit.
She grunts and attacks me and my other half when we try to fuss her or get her into cage, most recent i tried to pick her up from her cage after a brief fuss and i got a nasty bite in return.
I was hoping at some point i could get them back together and invest in a bigger cage for them but at the moment it appears I'm going to have to consider getting her re homed, before i go down this stage (which is my last resort), does any body have any advice to help this little demon turn nice again.?
Excuse any bad grammar or spelling.
Thank you
